» What is Gothicat World ?Gothicat World is a game where you can adopt the creatures living in the magical world of Gothicat. Every month, you can adopt several different species of creatures and collecting them. To complete your collections, a section "trade" has been developed.

THE CREATURES:

» How can I adopt a creature ?To do this you just need an account! Once your account is created, your page will be created automatically and you will be able to adopt creatures. To do this, choose a species and click on "adopt"!

You can then choose a name for your creature, if it is a male or a female, and even choose their place of birth in the world of Gothicat!

» Can I adopt an infinite number of animals ?No! We set a limited number of adoptions for each species! Like this, it is more difficult to complete the collections, which makes the game more attractive!

» I missed adoptions of this month, can I still adopt them ?No! Animals are available on Gothicat World one month only! If you want to get the animals of a previous month, you will get them by trade with other members on the site!

» How do my creatures grow up ?All alone! You do not need to feed them nor brush them or give them to drink (for now at last ^^) ... Our creatures are doing alone! Just visit them regularly to see how they evolve!

» How long for my creature to grow ?It varies from one species to another. Each creature has a growth period that webmasters set at the beginning of each month. Typically, the egg hatched around a week and becomes an adult maximum one month after its adoption (but sometimes this is longer).

» My creature… is it a male or a female ?That's up to you to decide! During your adoption, we let you choose the sex of your creature.

» Can my creature die ?No! The creatures that you have adopted on Gothicat World are eternal !

» Can I create my own creature ?No. It is complicated enough to handle fixed creatures each month, add personal creatures would be too hard to handle.

However, you can always open a shop of creatures you have made ​​in the forum and make them available to everyone!

» The families creatures, what is it ?At the opening of World Gothicat, each species had only one variety of creatures (adults) comes in different colors. Now, each species has 4 different creatures that make up a family (two parents and two small). Your role is to bring together families of creatures you adopt!!

» How to get my creature on my site, blog or signature in a forum ?First you have to go in "My Creatures" and choose the creature you want to display on your signature / blog / site. Click on the creature and a window opens with informations about your creature, including links to its image!

View the picture in a forum signature :you must select the entire contents of the box at the bottom of the window, which is entitled: "Use this code to display this creature in a forum for a signature example (BBCode)", and copy everything (by clicking right on the mouse and selecting "copy" or by pressing CTRL and C).

» Where can I contact you in case of problems on the site ?A contact email is available at the bottom of each page under the heading "contact"! You'll be put in contact with the webmaster of Gothicat World.

» How did you create this site ?The idea came from an internet game called Chicken Smoothie. Seeing that many people give up the idea of ​​playing on the site because of the language barrier, we decided to create a webseit loosely based on Chicken Smoothie in French.

Code (PHP) of the first version of the site was worked by Gabou drawing on advice provided by the webmaster of Chicken Smoothie. (advice available on their website: http://www.chickensmoothie.com)

The code has been amended many times over the years (and it's still evolving) and is now 90% handmade!

I have a quick question. its probably the silliest question ever, but is there any way to change the order of the creatures? like, my first set of eggs, from February, I adopted them. but, I didn't have all of them, so I traded for some of them. issue is, the ones I traded for are displayed on the last page, always. they don't show up next to their family. all of my destrinos is between my first three flamiris and the last one I needed to complete the family.even putting them into clans doesn't help.as I said, its probably the silliest question ever but i'm obsessive compulsive, so the fact that I have three members of a family separated from one by other creatures is bothering me.sorry if my rambling is hard to understand.

Sadly, at the moment there are no way to sort the creatures inside a clan. They are automaticaly sorted by their birthdate (+ hour of birth).So you can- create one clan by specie (put the Minoushas in a clan, the Destrinos in another one, etc...). This is good for the recent creatures, but you'll have more difficulties with the ancient sets so for the first years -2010, 2011, 2012, and perhaps more- you'll must probably create clans for each month for each type of creatures - try a white trade (exchange a creature against the same creature with the good date/hour of birth)

Thank you for the info Rostanga I had figured it was not possible after poking around the codes and buttons for a few days after I posted this, so I went ahead and put the idea in the idea box (along with some other ideas lol)

to make a donation to G.O., you can send a PM to the account (here is its profile : memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2239). A member of the staff (probably Eliya, who manages it more particularly) put a creature named with your nickname to trade, and when it's done you can send your trade, only against your reserved creature of course.
